Hi Everyone,

 

My fiancee and I are getting married at the Grand Palladium resort in the Riviera Maya in February 2013.  Our marriage will be under a Catholic Ceremony.  We have all the necessary paperwork for the church including paperwork from the Archdiocese here in Toronto and the NIHIL OBSTAT form.

 

Now my question is, do we have to get a marriage license or have a civil ceremony here in Toronto in order to have a legally recognized marriage in Ontario, Canada?  Are there any Canadian (Ontario) couples on the forum that have had a Catholic Ceremony in Mexico before?  What legal documents did you need/have when you came back to Canada?

 

Thanks,

Hi there!

 

The Riviera Maya has plenty of wonderful churches and chapels for a catholic wedding. You can see a selection of catholic chapels (including sea front) on this link  Catholic weddings in the Riviera Maya.

Concerning catholic legal steps, you are well advised to contact a local wedding planner. Weddings Riviera Maya can assist you to choose the church of your dream a manage legal requirements

Hello Garby77,

Probably by now, you already have all your documentation for your catholic ceremony next February.

 

However here is the information from the Parish here in Playa del Carmen.  

 

The catholic Church is very good organized all around the world so they will let you know step by step what you should do, otherwise as Pierre says, if you have a wedding planner you can ask her.

 

Hope it helps and happy planning!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
